Jeff Ashton Chuckling in Court

Many of you watch Dr. Drew every night on HLN at 9pm ET/PT and 8pm CT/MT

Last night, July 6, 2011, in an exclusive prime time interview, Dr. Drew spoke with to the man whose job it was to prove that Casey was guilty — prosecuting attorney Jeff Ashton. Casey Anthony has been acquitted of murder, but so many questions remain. How did this happen? What if Casey had taken the stand? What if there was a different jury? Do George and Cindy know more than they revealed? Dr. Drew got Jeff Ashton’s take on all of this.

In response to Dr. Drew asking if he thought the verdict would have turned out differently if the state had the opportunity to cross-examine Casey, Ashton said: “If what I’m understanding from those few hints we’ve gotten from the jury, probably not. Because it sounds like their decision was based simply on the state’s case. And I don’t know if she would have said anything that would have changed that.”

When Dr. Drew asked if the jury really saw the picture of Casey’s “unsavory” and “problematic” behavior, Ashton answered: “If they didn’t see it, it was because they didn’t feel it was important…[The jury] got as much information as they could about her behavior. And I credit the defense with doing a good job in trying to make it look like mental illness without saying so, because they couldn’t. There was no mental health defense asserted so they really couldn’t argue that…but it was good.”

What do you think? Could the prosecution have won this case if they did things differently?

Now we know her release date will be next Wednesday, July 13, 2011. Do you think her life will be in danger because of the Infotainment lynch mob mentality that those like Nancy Grace keeps fanned?
